    Speaker:  Evan Edelis


    Gerontologist with LiveWell Care Management, San Rafael, CA.

    Evan Edelist enjoys being an environmental gerontology resource and finding creative solutions for Aging in Place. He is an AgeSafe Senior Home Safety Specialist for Falls Prevention and a Certified Dementia Practitioner. Edelist is Credentialed by the National Association of Professional Gerontologists, and a member of the Gerontological Society of America, the Aging Life Care Association, and the American Society on Aging. He holds a BA from UC Berkeley, an MBA from Marylhurst University, an MFA from NYU Tisch School of the Arts, and an MS in Gerontology from McDaniel College. Evan also has an Emmy for Science and Technical Achievement for leading a team of engineers in developing a film to data scanner. He lives in San Rafael with his partner Lisa and their rescue dog, Omi.

    I am planning on talking about biopsychosocial aging needs relative to environmental gerontology, aging in place, and the latest useful trending technologies for safety, including when needing to shelter in place.

    Reservations are encouraged because they help us with the head count for the restaurant.

    Reservation deadline is Friday October 10, 2025.

    Pay online with your credit/debit card.  Registering online is the easiest and quickest way to register!.  You can pay with your credit/debit card.  You can also pay at the door if you wish but please make your reservation online. NOTE:  If you're paying with cash, please consider paying by check.  If you're paying by check, please make the check out beforehand.  Make the check payable to MCARE.

    Click on the "Register" button in the bottom of the box on the left to register for this luncheon and follow directions. You'll see a "pay online" button to click on to pay using your credit/debit card.

    For registered guests that will be paying by cash or by check, we have 2 favors to ask.

    First, we encourage you to come prepared with a check rather than pay cash.

    Second, please make your check made out beforehand. Be sure to make it payable to MCARE.  NOTE:  The price for each luncheon may change so be sure to check your registration invoice.

    This will make the check in process go much quicker. When paying by cash, it can slow everything down.

    Your cooperation is most appreciated.

    Thank you for all your help and support.

    Any questions contact Gene Pennington, President.
